Since the release of its Road to Iron Forest DLC back in November 2015, Aterdux Entertainment's strategy RPG Legends of Eisenwald has been sold alongside a $15 season pass promising two additional DLCs. The first of these turned out to be a standalone expansion that was crowdfunded and released a year later, just in time for a certain election. Today, Eisenwald has finally received its third and final expansion, also standalone. Its name is Bastard, and it too appears to be inspired by certain real life concerns, as the game's trailer and description will make clear:

Have you ever thought about the price of being good, even in bad times? Bastard is an adventure that puts an emphasis on decision-making. A realistic medieval world is waiting for you - tactical combat and a detective story included. And most importantly: people whose problems and questions have been the same for centuries.
